Building selftests with clang 23.0.0 (6fae863eba8a72cdd82f37e7111a46a70be525e0) triggers the following error:
tools/testing/selftests/bpf/prog_tests/fexit_bpf2bpf.c:117:12: error: assigning to 'char *' from 'const char *' discards qualifiers [-Werror,-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers] The variable `tgt_name` is declared as `char *`, but it stores the result of strstr(prog_name[i], "/"). Since `prog_name[i]` is a `const char *`, the returned pointer should also be treated as const-qualified. Update `tgt_name` to `const char *` to match the type of the underlying string and silence the compiler warning.
